Li ousts Radwanska to reach Aussie semis

Melbourne, Australia (Sports Network) - Li Na ousted arguably the hottest
player at the Australian Open in straight sets Tuesday, as the No. 6 seed from
China upended fourth-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska to reach the semifinals of the
year's first major.

Li, a runner-up here two years ago, was one of 13 straight victims by
Radwanska in the Sydney semis two weeks ago. Radwanska had not even lost a set
in her unbeaten start to 2013, but the native of Poland was stymied by Li,
7-5, 6-3 at Rod Laver Arena.

The 2011 French Open champ broke Radwanska's serve four times in the opening
set. Radwanska, who earned three breaks herself, saved one set point at 5-6,
but was wide left on the next point and hit the final ball of the 66-minute
first set into the net.

Li, who has not lost a set this tournament, broke at love to take a 4-2 lead
in the second set, and saved two break points leading 5-3 in the second before
Radwanska was long on a match point.
